Finally a way to make those "map" parchments more useful. I'd like them to reveal a vague direction notice to the final city location.

When you get the "The Ringwraith is IMPERVIOUS to the mundane weapon." message, you can't catch the black breath due your attack. ( I know that from the source code.)

So a nice to-hit sword of westernesse should kill a Nazgul, right? Of course with all the magic to--damage help you can get.

Yes, but you pay on entering the list.

Try it with no money and the beastmaster will not present you the list of creatures.

Buy the monster info from the beastmaster. :)

It can be costly if you don't know the correct char for that monster, but will give you the needed infos.

I voted "Don't Care".

I play gcu because it's easy to play from home or work...

It's a matter on how you play. Yes, the possiblity to get to lvl 20 is there. but no one is whipped to use it. If you like to have a slower leveling, play the BD Level 1.
